befine force constant.
Answers
Answer:
In physics, a force constant is another term for a spring constant, as defined by Hooke's law. ... The strength constant k is related to a system's rigidity (or stiffness), the greater the constant of force, the greater the restored force, and the stiffer the system. Newtons per metre (N/m) are units of k.
Explanation:
In physics,force constant is also called spring constant presented by Hooke's law.It is a proportional constant,
F=-kx
F is the force ( restoring force)
X is displacement or extension of spring
k is the spring constant or force constant.
we can also neglect negative sign in some cases where we are concerned with magnitude only
so
F= kx
k=F/X
force constant is defined as The force required to apply to produce unit displacement ( extension or compression)
The force constant is 1 k when a force of 1 Newtown produces displacement of 1 meter
Hope so this will be enough
